A Shell Oil Co. spokesman said here an explosive charge fixed eight feet below the water line at the stern of the 12,273-ton Amastra ripped a hole six feet long and four feet wide in the hull. Water flooded the engine and pump rooms of the vessel, but no casualties were reported 39 Die In Crash Over Sahara ALGIERS (Reuters)--An Al- gerian Airways DC-4 airliner crashed into a mountain deep in the Sahara Desert Tuesday night killing 35 of the 39 persons aboard, a police spokesman said today. The four-engined aircraft, on a routine weekly flight, crashed as it attempted to land at the remote desert tourist resort of Tammanrasset, about 1,000 miles south of Algiers. Police said the nationality of the victims and four survivors-- three of whom were severely in- jured--was not yet known, But most of them were believed to have been Algerian. The cause of the crash was not immediately known. The ill- fated aircraft carried a crew of six and it was not known if any of them had survived the spokesman said. The tan- ker owned by Tanker Finance Ltd., was discharging oil at the port when the explosion occur- red. A U.S. military spokesman said two U.S, Air Force men were killed and 45 other service- men were wounded in a 20-min- ute shelling of the Chu Lai marine base, 350 miles north- east of Saigon. TANKER SINKS Another U.S. military spokes- man said the stern of the Amas- tra had settled on the harbor bottom in 60 feet of water. He said the tanker had dis- charged most of its cargo when the explosion went off. In other action, a Viet Cong platoon engaged by two com- panies of American air cavalry- men, killed six U.S. soldiers and wounded 14 in Quang Ngai province, 310 miles northeast of Saigon. B - 52 bombers made three raids on the province of Thua Thien adjoining the Laotian frontier, an area across which infiltration has been heavy. Communist concentration points in Thua Thien have been the targets of six B-52 raids in the last two days. A terror campaign continued Tuesday against South Vietnam- ese village officials. The weekly report said 56 civilians were slain by terrorists, including 16 local officials or defectors. In all, the Viet Cong killed, wounded or abducted 302 civil- ians last week.

Convicted parity was achieved jing for these shipments for) OTTAWA TORONTO (CP) -- A leading authority on the hallucinatory drug LSD Tuesday night told Dr. Morton Shulman, former chief coroner for Metropolitan Toronto, that he sees little point in prohibiting persons from pos- sessing LSD. Dr. Abram Hoffer, psychiatrie director of the Saskatchewan department of public health, said "prohibition would he something like the prohibition of alcohol, and I think it would do more harm than good because of impure substances which would be manufactured and bootlegged."' Dr. Hoffer, who has been ex- perimenting with LSD since 1952 with the approval of the federal department of health, said he approves of legislation which outlaws public sale of the drug. He described LSD as a boon to mankind but a dangerous toy in the hands of persons unquali- fied to use it. ATTENDING INQUEST Dr. Hoffer, who was scheduled to be a witness at the inquest into the death of N. John Stern of Toronto, was discussing LSD with Dr. Shulman in a Toronto hotel. Dr. Shulman planned to con- duct the inquest into the Stern death but was fired as chief Metropolitan Toronto coroner last Friday. The inquest opened Tuesday. night under coroner Dr. Fred Cruickshank and was adjourned to April 19 after hear- ing some evidence. Stern died when he jumped or fell from the Bloor Street | duct in-Toronto. He was said to have taken LSD hours before his death. Dr. Hoffer said a massive edu- cational campaign should be un- dertaken among members of the public and among doctors and centres should be set up where LSD could be taken under su- pervision. He said that even if legisla- tion could prevent persons from possessing LSD, there are other hallucinatory drugs available in Canada, CENTURIES OLD "There's a plant called rat root which grows. abundantly across northern Canada from coast to coast. It gives the same effect as LSD. Indian medicine men have been using it for cen- turies, "There are drugs that can be bought from the shelves of any drug store--without prescription --which give the same effect, though I don't intend to name them publicly.' Dr. Hoffer warned that LSD can drive persons with schizo- phrenic tendencies "right over the hill" into disease, can influ- ence some persons to. suicide and can cause death by acci- dent to persons who, under its influence, think they can walk through the air. Dr. Hoffer said he has not been asked to appear at the in- quest under Dr. Cruickshank. Dr. Shulman said the loss of Dr. Hoffer's testimony destroyed at least half the value of the inquest.
